A Storm Surge Management System for the German Coast
Future storm surge management will be based on risk analyses including the determination of failure mechanisms of coastal defenses and their probabilities of occurrence as well as the calculation of losses due to inundation. This paper presents an example of a risk analysis carried out for the coastal region between the two major ports Wilhelmshaven and Bremerhaven. In order to supply the decision-makers and stakeholders with easily accessible information on storm surge management the results of the risk analysis were introduced into a Geographical Information System (GIS) called RISC — Risk Information System Coast.
